VaaSBlock is proud to announce a major partnership with Logixtic, a Global leader in digital logistics solutions. Known for connecting global cargo operators and freight forwarders, Logixtic has built a reputation for innovation and operational excellence across the LatAm region. Through this collaboration, Logixtic customers can now access VB Payments, VaaSBlock’s trusted crypto payment gateway, to pay in over 200 cryptocurrencies.
This announcement marks a significant step forward in making international logistics more efficient, secure and inclusive. The new crypto payment integration enables Logixtic to offer its clients a powerful alternative to traditional payment systems, reducing delays and expanding financial access. With VB Payments, VaaSBlock continues to help businesses in traditional industries unlock the benefits of decentralized finance, reflecting a growing global trend toward faster, transparent and borderless payment solutions.
Why Crypto matters in Global Logistics
Global trade is constantly evolving. As companies move goods across borders, they also need to move money: quickly, reliably and without barriers. Traditional payment systems, while familiar, often come with high fees, long delays and poor transparency.
That is why more logistics companies are turning to crypto. Digital assets offer faster settlement, lower costs and the ability to operate without reliance on outdated financial infrastructure. Crypto also enables new business models, allowing platforms like Logixtic to serve clients around the world, regardless of their local banking systems.
By adding support for 200+ cryptocurrencies, Logixtic ensures that its platform is ready for the future of logistics and finance. Whether clients want to pay in Bitcoin, Ethereum, stablecoins or emerging tokens, VB Payments makes the process seamless.
Introducing Logixtic
Logixtic is a digital logistics marketplace that empowers companies to discover, book and manage global freight services. With a focus on transparency and automation, Logixtic simplifies complex logistics workflows for freight forwarders, exporters and importers.
Based in Latin America and expanding globally, Logixtic connects thousands of companies with real time pricing, routing and tracking options across air, sea and land freight. Its platform is built to handle the demands of modern trade and now, it is ready to support modern payments too.
Logixtic’s mission is to make global logistics simple, digital and secure. With this new crypto integration powered by VB Payments, they are one step closer to that vision.
The role of VB Payments
VB Payments is VaaSBlock’s secure, scalable and blockchain ready payment infrastructure. It enables businesses to accept payments in over 200 cryptocurrencies with automatic conversion, fraud prevention and real time settlement.
By plugging into VB Payments, companies like Logixtic gain instant access to a compliant and powerful crypto payment layer, without having to build it themselves. The integration supports a wide range of tokens and wallets, and can be customized for any business use case.
Whether it is a small payment for freight services or a large cross-border transaction, VB Payments ensures fast execution and full transparency. It is the ideal solution for logistics, where speed, accuracy and cost efficiency are mission critical.
Carlos Salazar Cardona, CEO of Logixtic, shared his thoughts on the new partnership: “At Logixtic, we believe in innovation that solves real world problems. Partnering with VaaSBlock allows us to offer our customers more flexibility and better financial tools. We are very happy to work with VaaSBlock and its partners to bring crypto payments to the logistics industry. This is just the beginning of a smarter, faster way to move goods and money around the world.”
Building a Global Ecosystem
This partnership is more than just a technical integration. It is a step towards building a truly global and inclusive logistics network. One where payments are no longer a barrier, but an enabler of opportunity.
With VB Payments, Logixtic users can:
- Pay in over 200 cryptocurrencies including BTC, ETH, USDC, USDT and many more
- Access near instant settlement regardless of location or time zone
- Reduce transaction fees and overhead costs traditionally associated with bank wires
- Improve security through blockchain-based transaction tracking
- Serve customers in unbanked or underbanked regions
VaaSBlock’s infrastructure ensures all payments are processed securely and in compliance with international standards. For Logixtic users, this means peace of mind and operational efficiency.
A Shared Vision for the Future
Both VaaSBlock and Logixtic are committed to digital transformation and financial inclusion. As pioneers in their respective industries, they are building tools that make it easier for businesses to operate across borders.
Logixtic is also leading by example when it comes to compliance and transparency. The company already holds a VB1 Badge, VaaSBlock’s foundational verification for business registration. In addition, Logixtic is currently undergoing a comprehensive audit to obtain the RMA™ (Risk Management Authentication) certification, demonstrating its proactive approach to building secure and trustworthy infrastructure in the logistics industry.
VaaSBlock CEO Ben Rogers commented: “Logistics is one of the most important use cases for crypto adoption. By bringing VB Payments to the Logixtic platform, we are enabling real world impact. Businesses can now settle payments faster, with fewer intermediaries and better transparency. We are proud to support Logixtic’s global vision.”
Use Case Spotlight
Consider a freight forwarder in Colombia arranging a shipment to South Korea. Traditionally, this process might require manual invoicing, multiple currency conversions and slow wire transfers.
With Logixtic and VB Payments, the same transaction can now be completed in minutes using stablecoins or any supported crypto. The system handles currency conversion, ensures compliance and provides an instant payment confirmation, allowing the shipment to proceed without delay.
This speed and simplicity is a game changer for small and medium sized logistics providers, who often face friction when working with international clients.
Security and Compliance First
While crypto payments are fast and flexible, security remains essential. VB Payments includes strong compliance checks, wallet validation and anti-fraud measures to protect both Logixtic and its users.
VaaSBlock also supports real time audit trails and smart-contract based payment verification. This is critical in industries like logistics, where proof of payment can trigger downstream processes like cargo release or customs clearance. For Logixtic clients, this means each transaction is not only faster, but safer and easier to track.
What this means for the Logistics Industry
The logistics sector is one of the largest and most complex industries in the world. It relies on thousands of partners, intermediaries and payment channels. Streamlining this with crypto is a logical next step.
By integrating VB Payments, Logixtic is showing that even in a traditional industry, innovation is possible. They are setting an example for how digital assets can bring real improvements in efficiency, trust and access.
Other players in the industry are watching closely. As more logistics companies embrace crypto, a new standard for global trade could emerge: one powered by fast, secure and borderless payments.
What comes next
This is only the beginning. VaaSBlock and Logixtic are already exploring further collaboration, including:
- Custom smart contracts for conditional payments and milestone based logistics
- Token rewards and loyalty programs for repeat users
- Integration with other RMA certified partners in the VaaSBlock ecosystem
- Expansion to new markets across Asia, Africa and Latin America
The goal is to build a future where crypto is not an alternative, but the default in logistics.

The Competitive Logic of Crypto in Global Trade Finance: A Seven Powers Analysis
Helmer’s Seven Powers framework identifies the specific mechanisms that allow a business to generate sustained above-average returns — not just in the short term, but over the period where the competitive landscape has time to respond. For a logistics operator like Logixtic, the question of whether crypto payment adoption via VaaSBlock creates durable competitive advantage or just a temporary differentiation depends on which of the Seven Powers — if any — the adoption actually engages.
The first candidate is Process Power: an internally developed operational capability that allows the company to deliver a product or service at a lower cost or higher quality than competitors, in a way that is difficult to replicate because it is embedded in the organisation’s operations. Logixtic’s integration of VB Payments creates a process capability — faster cross-border settlement, lower payment intermediary costs, real-time transaction visibility — that is differentiating today but will be available to competitors who choose to adopt similar payment infrastructure. Process Power requires that the capability be non-imitable, at least temporarily. Logixtic’s first-mover advantage here is real but likely temporary: the payment infrastructure is not proprietary, and competitors can access it by making the same integration decision.
The more durable power candidate is Switching Costs. When Logixtic’s enterprise customers — companies with international supply chains that route through Logixtic’s network — begin integrating their payment workflows with VB Payments as their settlement layer, they create dependencies that make switching to a competitor costly. The API integrations, the treasury processes, the KYC documentation that has been completed through VaaSBlock’s verification system — all of these represent switching costs that grow with each transaction processed. The enterprise customer who has been paying Logixtic via VB Payments for 18 months has established a payment relationship that would need to be rebuilt with a competitor. That switching cost accumulates over time and is stronger for larger enterprise customers with more complex payment workflows.
cross-chain infrastructure and oracle reliability for trade finance is the technical infrastructure that makes the switching cost argument credible. Cross-chain settlement infrastructure with oracle price feeds means that the payment rails Logixtic is using are not locked to any single blockchain — the integration is to VB Payments as a settlement layer, which can route across multiple chains as the underlying technology evolves. This reduces the technology obsolescence risk that would otherwise weaken the switching cost argument: customers are not locked into a specific blockchain but into a relationship with VaaSBlock and with Logixtic as an operator that uses VaaSBlock’s infrastructure.
The Network Effect power candidate is weaker for Logixtic specifically, but stronger for the VaaSBlock ecosystem as a whole. A logistics network that accepts crypto payments from customers is more valuable as more customers hold and use crypto — that is a network effect, but it is external (dependent on overall crypto adoption) rather than internal (dependent on Logixtic-specific network growth). The more interesting network effect is at the ecosystem level: each new logistics operator that adopts VB Payments makes the system more attractive for customers who prefer crypto payments, which makes VB Payments more attractive for the next operator to adopt, which makes the customer base larger. Logixtic benefits from this network effect by being early in the adoption curve.
enterprise blockchain regulatory clarity for cross-border trade is the regulatory foundation that determines whether these competitive dynamics can stabilise. If enterprise blockchain payments remain in a regulatory grey area, the adoption curve will be slower and the competitive advantage from early adoption will be more temporary. If regulatory clarity at the level of the XRP decision extends to stablecoin payments in cross-border logistics — which is where DAO legal structures and the liability frameworks that govern crypto trade operators is moving — the market for crypto-native logistics payments becomes large enough to support specialised operators. Logixtic’s positioning as an operator that handles crypto payment logistics natively, with the legal and operational infrastructure already built, would then represent genuine Counter-Positioning: a capability that incumbent logistics operators would find difficult to replicate without cannibalising their existing conventional payment relationships.
The real-world asset tokenisation as the next layer of trade finance modernisation argument extends this: as trade receivables and freight invoices begin to be tokenised as real-world assets, the logistics operator that already has crypto payment infrastructure becomes a natural participant in the emerging tokenised trade finance market. The competitive moat in that future scenario is not just the payment acceptance capability — it is the operational experience, the counterparty relationships, and the legal documentation that Logixtic will have accumulated by the time that market matures. the credibility infrastructure that enables enterprise crypto partnerships provides the VaaSBlock credibility infrastructure that anchors the competitive positioning: a logistics operator whose crypto payment capability is verifiable and auditable has a stronger position than one whose adoption is claimed but not documented.
